arXiv:2611.09154v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reasoning traces improve vision-language models on complex multimodal tasks, but forcing every input to follow a long reasoning process leads to overthinking and unnecessary inference cost. We study adaptive fast/slow thinking for VLMs, where one model answers…
